This can make recruiting tough

Let's see, the Big East with an iPod or the Pac-10 with a bottle of Dr. Pepper and some chips, who who should I choose.....?

haha, a backpack "full of snacks." We do it big time on the left coast.

Honestly, though, it has always surprised me that the NCAA lets this (and bowl gifts) slide like they do. I mean, I guess I understand a bowl sweatshirt (or tournament apparel), but iPods and stuff? Always surprised me. Does women's lacrosse get iPods for making the postseason? Stuff like this just seems over-the-top hypocritical.

And you wonder why all the good players leave for other conferences/

Big East players get an IPOD Touch!! Man, sign me up!!

Maybe the Big East should take some of that ipod money and invest in some legitimate officials. The end to the St. Johns/Rutgers game was a farce.

They're usually a lot better than they showed today, but it's not like they are always crap like the Pac-10's refs are.
